Goebel's song sounds so much like a Tom Brosseau creation that I can't quite remember ..

the 128k winamp stream is freaking out..

That Mr Brosseau song is .. " I Live With Other People In Mind "

Hey Annie - Did you make a decision regarding the cats?

Funny that. I just listened the other day to the "London's the Place for me" comp. Some splendid tunes there, guvnor ...

Fri. 11/21/08 9:32am
annie:
well, i passed it by the other and he said no, he did not want to transport cats up from NY. oh well.. and i just looked now at the bouvier dog breed. wow impressive .. very nice

Thanks for the calypso. I think that this is the way that all the news of the day should be commented on and shared. Fantastic musical tradition.

Bouviers will let you enter a building or area, but won't let you go unless released by their owner!

Fri. 11/21/08 9:38am
annie:
i think i'll just call my vet and see what she wants to give away, she always has something..cecile do you do rescue work as well? the bouvier is anice breed for me up here, but i fear the money factor will rear its ugly head.

I too dig the Carribean vocal inflections. Junior Gumby No. 1 had a third grade teacher from Jamaica, she would be hollering at them & it still sounded like honey. Although the begging bartenders at our all inclusive in jamaica got a little tiresome with there "Take care me mon" night time cooing.

Warning - the site is garish with bad audio. I hope it's not indicative of their services!

Cecile:
I don't do rescure work, don't even have the 1st pup yet. HOWEVER - there is a rescure out there for every single breed. Google Bouvier rescue, and you will come up with plenty of info. Good luck, they are gorg dogs!

Fri. 11/21/08 9:45am
annie:
thanks so much for those connections... i'll get on that. my rattie friend might be able to help me; it's what she does.

Fri. 11/21/08 9:47am
Cecile:
Excellent.
I'm looking to adopt a rescue Scottie in the next yr-18 mos myself. I just have to save up for a fence first.

I take it in this case tarde means tired. What a great tune! Doug does it again.

what other stream do you guys use, the winamp 128k stream is cracking up.

I picked up a comp of 50s popular tunes while in Spain last year, quite varied and not really latin-american-derived overall ...

Fri. 11/21/08 10:03am

this is wonderful!

Fri. 11/21/08 10:10am

doug, do you have any fado lined up?

Fri. 11/21/08 10:11am

i rather think the 'tarde' in 'tarde de futbol' means 'afternoon'

paul, i have 3 of her cds.. i love her. i got turned on to her long ago and never looked back..

Fri. 11/21/08 10:18am
annie:
i'd love to tell you how i found her: i was driving home fromvisiting a friend and i was in altered states, as it were. the dj put a song on and by the time i was halfway home i had to stop the car and just listen.. it was phenomenal!!

Fri. 11/21/08 10:20am
annie:
a good car stereo can make a world of difference..

Fri. 11/21/08 10:20am

paul/annie,

I thought so ...

Fri. 11/21/08 10:20am
gumby:
Palomita, that sounds more like it. Because if it was "Tired of Football" it would probably be a hillbillie song in a blues style.

Paul Sherratt:
annie,
I just happened to be watching a football ( soccer ! ) match on Portuguese TV the week after Amalia Rodrigues died. One of the legendary lady's songs was played to the crowd just before the game started. Not only were grown men shedding tears but teenage lads were choking as well.

carlos, you saw them live? wow. what a trip it must have been

Now have you by any chance come across the aristocratic Maria Teresa de Noronha ... ? ( she's on the youtube I think )
Oh boy!

Fri. 11/21/08 10:35am

non! i shall write her name down... (starting a new page) thanks!!

the front porch swingin' liquor pigs do a great cover of this song here in Mpls.

With that handle, I think front porch swingin' liquor pigs would just have to identify themselves as such and step off the stage and it'd still be a fine set. Anything else'd be (biscuit) gravy.

Fri. 11/21/08 10:47am
annie:
hhmmmm, biscuits... gravy.. drool. drool

they are usually better than their name! Especially when Spider John Koerner is ripped to the gills and sits in with them.

Fri. 11/21/08 10:50am

I'm sayin' good name! Worth a reasonable cover charge just to hear them step up and ID theyse'fs.

was that the Glen Glenn of the famous Glen Glenn sound studio in Hollywood?

Fri. 11/21/08 10:53am

See, I want to do the ultimate funk/soul/country set:
this song
Kid and play's Square Dance
Sir Mixalot's Square Dance Rap
Smiley Lewis's Country Boy
also any song with the word "chicken in the title"

Oh man, I haven't heard 5D's melodic version of the Declaration in decades. Makes me think of all those stunts where high school kids take the text of the Dec and circulate it at the mall as a petition. Needless to add, they are uniformly exoriated as unpatriotic troublemakers.

Baby Huey was over here in the UK very recently ... and I did NOT know !

Late to the fantasy set suggestion, C., but just another beak in the haul: Ozark Mountain Daredevils "Chicken Train" -- 500 track miles away from "Jackie Blue" -- was another unsober song selection among the Iowans singing "Drop Kick Me, Jesus". Oy.

Which cheek, dare one ask ?

Baby Huey's version is unbearable in a good way I assume?

Dusty Groove has been reissuing all sorts of Tropicalia on CD lately. I've picked up a couple of Gilberto Gil albums and Gal Costa's album from 1969.

Paul Sherratt:
Apologies to anyone cancelling trips to the Uk for fear of bumping in to the late Baby Huey. I was getting the man mixed up with Binky Griptite - it's easily done !
